SSH from iNdependence not accessible
Hi, I've run into trouble with iNdependence 1.2.5's SSH implementation on two phones, both previously untouched, out of the box.
1: week 29, orig firmware 1.0
2: week 37, orig firmware 1.0.2
1) had trouble finding my Wifi Network, always came back with either a self-assigned IP (169.xxx) or 192.xxx when my AirPort network runs on the 10.xxx scheme. So I restored it to 1.0.2 in iTunes (hold buttons for yellow triangle, Opt-Click on Restore). Wifi works now; both phones can access the web on Safari. Now I have basically two 1.0.2 iPhones and they behave similarly:
Activation in iNdependence. OK.
Install SSH. OK. (at least iNdependence says so)
The status on bottom reads:
"Connected to iPhone • Firmware 1.0.2 • activated • AFC connection • jailbroken"
Trying to connect with Fetch (SFTP) times out.
correct IP (from my WiFi info screen), port 22, root/dottie
Error: "SFTP connecting to 10.0.2.11 could not be opened because the connection to the SFTP server could not be established or was lost."
Trying to connect in Terminal:
ssh root@10.0.2.11
cssh: connect to host 10.0.2.11 port 22: Operation timed out
Trying to use AppTapp:
"Error - Bootstrap failed"
also puts this in my system.log:
AppTapp Installer.app/Contents/Resources/iphonecomm: Could not perform SSL handshake\n
The strange thing is that the Customize tab in iNdependence itself seems to get SOME erratic access. For example, I was able to copy Installer.app to the phone and it worked. But when I want to delete it again, I get this:
"Failed - Couldn't connect to SSH server. Ensure IP address is correct, phone is connected to a network, and SSH is installed correctly."
BUT, strangely, despite the error, the app IS gone from the phone.
Then, I tried copying another app to the phone, got the same error, but this time it did not copy anything.
My goal is of course to upgrade to 1.1.1 and, like the other processes above, no luck without proper SSH. "Performing Pre-1.1.1 operations" ->
"Failed - Couldn't connect to SSH server. Ensure IP address is correct, phone is connected to a network, and SSH is installed correctly."
What to do? I tried rebooting the iPhone, uninstalling and reinstalling SSH. Nothing. Tried installing OpenSSH via Installer.app but that requires BSD subsystem, which is currently down. No luck either. This is not the first iPhone I work with, but the first time using 1.2.5. I read something about SSH keys in my host file, apparently mentioned in the iNdependence readme? My ReadMe doesn't say anything about that, it's just a disclaimer and credits. My user/.ssh folder on my Mac is empty. Would appreciate any ideas...
I posted this in the iNdependence 1.2.5 release thread at first, but I have a feeling people aren't looking there anymore. So pls excuse the double-post.
